Buile Suibhne (Author: [unknown])

paragraph 73

1. Cliff of Farannan, abode of saints,
   with many fair hazels and nuts,
   swift cold water
   rushing down its side.
2. Many green ivy-trees are there
   and mast such as is prized,
   and fair, heavy-topped apple-trees
   bending their branches.
3. Many badgers going under its shelter
   and fleet hares too,
   and
   [...]
   brows of seals
   coming hither from the main.
4. I am Suibhne son of upright Colman,
   many a frosty night have I been feeble;
   Ronan of Druim Gess has outraged me,
   I sleep 'neath a tree at yonder waterfall.
